On the Battlefield

Selected dates from Saturday 3 August 2019 to Sunday 11 August 2019

Multiple venues

Meet a knight from the middle ages and find out how he prepares for war. You can try on a helmet and pick up a sword as you get an idea as to what fighting in a pitched battle must have felt like. Hear what a Scottish knight would be wearing from head to toe and the different types of armour used on the battlefield. You can also meet our medieval archer and practice your skills with our easy to use equipment and see if you could be on the winning side!
